Well I guess experience wasn't so great. I LOVED him for all our checkup ups however labor and delivery I am very upset with. Two hours into my labor the nurse came in and said he would be coming in shortly to break my water, I asked why ad she replied," at 7 he does his rounds and breaks everyone's waters. I thought this was normal and so I didn't say anything. He told the nurses to push my pitocin every hour. By 3 hours into labor I was 8cm dialated and there was NO need to push pitocin like they were. He wasn't the warm friendly dr I had known him to be during all my visits. He was very business like and uninviting and it was like he was trying to rush my labor to get out of there. When by 5 hrs into labor it was time for me to push.....they have me soo much pitocin she was ready to shoot out. After my first push he proceeded to give me an episiotomy which caused be to have a 2nd degree tear and almost rip completely to my butt. It took 3 pushes, so in 10 mins I had my beautiful baby girl. Inbetween waiting contractions dr rajala and the nurses were talking about what someone texted each other about coffee..... I was pissed. The only time he was engaged with me was when he would say ok here comes a contraction lets push. As soon as he stitched me up he left without saying anything else to me. I felt very robbed of my birthing experience. It was like I was only dollar signs to him. Was not the same dr I had grown to know. Thought I share. I'm pretty sure he is at Baylor in McKinney now. This was in dec 2011 when I had my LO

Oh no, that's terrible. I'm so sorry that you went through that experience. I've been going to him since I was 2003 and when my husband I got pregnant in 2008 we knew that we wanted him to deliver our daughter. I was induced at 39w. Checked in to the hospital Thursday night and he stopped by to see how I was and told me he'd see me in the morning. At 6am Friday morning he came in a broke my water. By 2:00 I started feeling the need to push and the nurses were prepping me for delivery and pages Dr Rajala. He was there in less than 5min and by 2:13 I delivered our daughter with only 3 pushes. I had a first degree tear and he stitched me up and said I did great. He even stuck around a few minutes for pictures. Saturday morning he came back by in his street clothes to check up on me and once again tell me how great I did and that we had a healthy beautiful baby girl. I've enjoyed all my visits with him, from when I was just 17 getting my yearly up until now with every OB visit I've had. I've heard several mixed reviews about him. Again, sorry for your bad experience :(
